Candy Crush: Fun Game or Frustrating Cash Grab?

Candy Crush: Fun Game or Frustrating Cash Grab?

30 reviews between Feb 17, 2023 and May 06, 2023.

The Candy Crush game has become more difficult, competitive and almost impossible to pass certain levels without paying for boosters or gold bars. It is also filled with too many pop-ups, ads and hints that can be annoying and frustrating. Some players have been playing for years and find it hard to complete levels due to game glitches, lack of rewards, and forced ads. Overall, players love the graphics, colorful candies, and sense of order, but hate the cash-grabbing tactics and music changes.

  • It's fun filled. It's one of its kind. Actually a time killer while you keep on enjoying the challenges posed. I love it beyond words. It is good and challenging too. It is very nice and keeps me keen on the execution of my next move always. Candy crush saga has a lot more than meets the eye. It's is well crafted to keep one extremely occupied on active always.

  • Some of the levels are so difficult they just give you 16 moves but the objectives are 100. It so IMPOSSIBLE to beat it unless you purchase the deals. I think they design it for you to purchase the deals they offers.so frustrating. Can't passed the difficult level without spending a money.

  • I love the game. It has great game play, and the candy looks good enough to make me want to eat it! The reason I put 4 stars instead of five, was that the nightmare difficulty is almost impossible. I'm stuck on level 46, and have tried countless times, unsuccessful. If the levels are updated to be easier, I think it will be more enjoyable.

  • Terrible, ads more and more as you progress. Worse still is the algorithm determines your progress, sometimes you cannot win a level until it gives you a good drop sequence. I'm sure purchasing anything improves it...speaking of which, you are constantly bombarded with micro transaction prompts. Some ads I understand but wow, just all over the place. Also funny how the algorithm changes after some ads watched sometimes...

  • Sometimes enjoyable, more often annoying. I actually spent some money on this when i first started playing but absolutely refuse to do so now. The fish ruin your set-ups and don't go for vital objects. And it's far too easy to accidentally use gold bars. It takes 3 or 4 confirmations to quit the game but touch the 'use gold bars' button and bam! Instant purchase.

  • I have been playing for a while and I wish some of the levels were made easier, especially the nightmare difficulty. It seems they are made impossible unless you spend money on boosters or extra moves. I don't feel that is right especially when its one after another back to back, and I did pay to pass the previous level.... Getting to the point when I will just delete the game and forget about it...

  • It's fun and frustrating especially when you get stuck on one level for a long time. And I also have an issue where when am playing the game,then my time's up,and then I want to watch an ad to get some extra time but the moment I finish watching the ad, everything just clashes . Overall it's a nice game. I love it ,been playing for a year now

  • The game is pretty good, although the latest update is a massive head scratcher. Why did you change the texture of the green candies?? It's so distracting and looks so out of place. It's hard for it to blend with other candy colours cause it sticks out like a sore thumb. I hope this texture change is temporary. I miss the old map for the levels too, the new one is admitted aesthetic, but maybe of we zoom out more, it would be as beneficial as the old map?

  • Fun game, gets you sucked in with easy levels, lots of extras. Then, the levels get really hard, and it takes multiple lives just to beat them. And it wouldn't be a big deal, but there seems to be more hard levels than fun ones. And sometimes it takes a day or two to beat them. Not interested in that. I am uninstalling.

  • Its a great game and enjoy every each level. At times too many adds. Fun and nice. The grafic design and cartoon character are nice. I love the game even at times is difficult to play. It cheers my day when stressful. It a good game for brain. Need to work out the game when the level is hard. After playing a year they have improved and different stages. Fun and has improved... love it
